The univariate and multivariate normal distributions play a central role in statistical modeling. However, there are many natural phenomena that do not behave according to the normal law. In particular, there is a need to model multivariate binomial, Poisson, exponential, gamma, and beta distributions, for example. There are many ways to create bivariate (or multivariate) distributions with given marginals, so that it is important to understand the underlying ratio-nale for these extensions. The present review outlines a number of methods that have been used to create "natural" multivariate non-normal distributions.
